I see many people whose bitterness correlates directly to how many years they've been alive. If you plotted it on a map, it would be an upward-leaning line.

Some people seem to glide through challenges that flatten everyone else. They hit their goals and keep moving forward in ways that can feel almost unfair to watch.

I've been criticized all my life. Mostly, these center around being ‘too boring, serious, morose, sleepy, as if I've just woken up, and angry.'

…if you don’t want:

I hate to break it to you…

I come across many people who are frustrated with the effect they seem to have (and lack thereof) on other people.

I'm not going to say I'm motivated and high-achieving all the time to impress you. I'm not. I often procrastinate, and I certainly do not always feel motivated.

I was blown away by Gary Keller's book The One Thing when I read it on the top floor of a Bangkok apartment complex. I'd been going through plenty of stress back then.

Many of us are overwhelmed by all the habits and routines everywhere that we have been conditioned to believe we need to succeed.

‘My life isn’t that exciting.’
